that those boards are supposed to just keep going and do what they felt they have been <br /> directed to do under the timeline. <br /> Chair Jacobs: I think we should be clear that we don't want them to rewrite the whole chapter. <br /> Commissioner Gordon: I refer to the Transportation Board where they submitted their items <br /> and it was in the appendix. If they want to try and fold that in or somehow try and figure out how <br /> that fits, that they should be allowed to do that. <br /> Chair Jacobs: Well, at this point, I think they should do just like all the other boards. <br /> Commissioner Gordon: They might be able to fit everything that's in the appendix into the <br /> format. It's been submitted and the consultant put it in the appendix. The consultant could have <br /> handled it differently. It's not that you have to reread it, because it's in the appendix. I think <br /> they were going to try and figure out somehow that they can comply, how they can make it <br /> work. We shouldn't say they can't rewrite it. They were the board that got the information on <br /> the night they were to make comments and so one of the meetings was not productive. They. <br /> were actually able to recast it, and then when they did submit their comments, they were <br /> . basically rejected and it was put in the appendix. I think we owe it to them to let them try and <br /> figure out. They've been told that they're supposed to try to follow the guidelines we put down. <br /> That's going to require some rewriting. The Transportation Element is going to require some <br /> rewriting even though the Transportation Board hasn't said anything. There's not enough <br /> emphasis on things like air quality and other things in there. It's going to need to be rewritten. <br /> Tom Altieri: I think that we would certainly welcome specific comments from the OUT Board <br /> and how their new format could be incorporated into the format we have now and the format <br /> that was presented to the OUT Board in November of last year. <br /> Chair Jacobs: So, it will go the Planning Board and the Planning Board will decide. I'm not <br /> going to agree for any advisory board to rewrite its chapter. It should go to the Planning Board <br /> and the Planning Board can decide how to deal with it. <br /> Jay Bryan: We're fine with dealing with that. <br /> Tom Altieri: Will the three of you be sending to staff comments as well, in addition to the two <br /> Commissioners that were not here tonight, on the remaining sections? <br /> Chair Jacobs: I think it's open through the public hearing for anybody to make comments, <br /> including the Commissioners. <br /> Commissioner Gordon: My interpretation is that the Commissioners are welcome to make <br /> comments. <br /> What are we going to do about the fact that the other jurisdictions have the wrong CD? <br /> Tom Altieri: Let me investigate that first. These were done in separate batches, and I will <br /> check to see if the correct version is on that CD. <br /> CLOSED SESSION <br />
